Aggression and hunger, found a direct correlation

 




Most family quarrels occur, which is called scratch, and such scandals often lead to long arguments and heavy atmosphere in the family. Meanwhile, in many cases, ugly scenes could be avoided by removing the feeling of hunger.



From a medical point of view, the feeling of hunger is nothing but the decrease in the level of glucose in the blood, and in the everyday bustle such a reduction does not always lead to the conscious desire to eat.

 

American researchers claim that the decline in blood sugar levels may increase aggression, which spills out to the spouse.

 

For this reason, to eliminate the irresistible urge to yell at your husband or wife, you can use small portions of high-calorie food – sweets, cake, pastry or other foods with a high content of carbohydrates.

 

The staff of the Ohio state University (Ohio State University) for 3 weeks at the end of each day was measured the level of glucose in the blood of men and 214 women, 107 married couples.

 

And to measure the level of formal aggressiveness towards "pious" or "better half" was used a completely original method...

 




Each of the participants received the doll, such as those used by sorcerers of voodoo each doll came with a set of 51 pins.

 

In the evening before going to bed each member of the couple determined the degree of their irritation or anger towards husband/wife, sticking in the doll corresponding number of pins and recording this number in the diary.

 

This process each of the spouses has performed alone and concealed information from the other spouse.

 

Comparison of results of analyses "sugar" and the number of pins stuck in the symbolic husband or wife, showed that the lower was the level of sugar in the blood of study participants, the higher was their aggressiveness.

 

"The process of controlling emotions requires considerable effort from the brain, for which you need a lot of glucose. If it enters the brain is not enough, the man largely loses the ability to self-control," – explains the results obtained by the supervisor of the studies Professor brad Bushman (Brad Bushman).
